I've found the burlesque community very accepting of all different sizes, shapes, genders, ages etc and I'm sure if you (and your wife if you wanted some fun together) went to a class you'd be welcomed with open arms. The same with performing.

My husband is a CD too, and the 'big pig' looks better in my corset than I do I'm only jealous. We used to find it difficult to find nice dresses for him with long sleeves but he has quite a few sets of gorgeous opera gloves now.

In the meantime - welcome!!

Good evening Tempest. While I am watching a lot of Betty Page, as I like that style of minimum amount of movement she used to use at times, I have also discovered a Lady called "La Petite Mort" who is a real scream with how she does her act, or at least the one I was watching today. I also like Dizzy Von Damns approach to things and many, many others but, yes, I wont be just copying someone.

I must admit to be heading down the road of a 1940/50's evening dress and music something like "In The Mood" but, with a splattering of Betty Boop (the cartoon), I don't know, somethign will come tot he surface soon I hope!

As for walking in heels and having great legs and nice wee bum.........Yup, sorry girls, I might have a few of you beat there! The belly lets me down So a diet I am on!

When I was a bit fatter than I am now I was wearing maternity dresses............No, not pretending I was pregers, just that nowt else fitted!

And lastly, thank you for your welcome my dear

John

Sorry, John, I hope that didn't come over wrong - I wasn't accusing you of straight copying I was picking up on you putting yourself down slightly saying you wouldn't be as femme as the beautiful lovelies already out there - what I was trying to say is you will be beautiful in your own way. It's taken my husband quite a while to become more womanly, I hope he doesn't mind me saying that at first he did clearly look like a bloke in a dress by the way he held himself and was quite self-conscious. But each time he puts on a bra, dress and makeup he becomes more femme each time.

I know what you mean about the getting inspiration from performers with the minimum amount of movement though - being a big woman I can't do the complicated, wonderful dance-orientated routines that some of the fab performers here can do and if I did I'd just look silly - but I can use comedy and I can do-less-is-more seductive. Check out Dirty Martini, she oozes feminine sex appeal and I think you'd like her stuff, there are some vids on her myspace page. Leyla Rose too, her myspace page also has some vids to watch. If you can ever get to see Crimson Skye too, I'm sure you'd love her style.

Hey you! I won't have a word said against my lovely bum! But yes, I'm pretty jealous of my hubby's legs

Do you wear a corset? Coz if you don't you gotta try one, not only will it make you feel better about your belly (I'm with December Charm here, don't diet unless you're really unhappy with it) but I suspect it would help with the transformation into Michelle too. I know when I put them on I feel way more sexy and my husband loves them too.

You should call yourself something with Ma Belle in it, that or Miss Très Bien Ensemble

I have a small magic act that I do so a lot of the hand movements and some of the foot work is nearly similar, I always have been very feminine in my movements. Hey, you should have no problems at all! You are a real woman, I am a bloke TRYING to be female in this! So, go for it dear, strut your stuff!

No worries my dear, you didn,t come over wrong at all. As for YOUR bum? What can I say my dear woman. BBW rules! giggle

I have spoken to Louise about wearing a corset, I have some ideas I need to chat about with some one before making my mind up. As for dieting? I have no choice, I was diagnosed Diabetic 3 months ago...........I was nearly 18 stone, now I am sixteen and a half! Problem is, I cannot find where it has gone from!
